Join the Wolf Pack! DCFC hosts Fences With Wolves Mixed Youth Epee Event
Fences With Wolves is a youth tournament to benefit the Yellowstone Wolf Project
May 16, 2013
On June 2, DCFC hosts the second annual "Fences with Wolves." This is a Y10, Y12, and Y14 Mixed Epee event.
This tournament is a fundraiser for the Wolf Project of the Yello…wstone Park Foundation. Last year, Fences With Wolves raised enough money to buy two radio collars for the Wolf Project.
As a thank-you, the Yellowstone Park Foundation sent us a wonderful cast of a paw print. We are having this made into a special trophy and the winners of both this year's and last year's events will have their names engraved on it.
Participants in this youth fundraiser are encouraged (but not required) to join the pack and seek sponsors to back them as they battle for the title of Alpha Wolf. Sponsorship forms, allowing sponsors to pledge per point scored, will be emailed to preregistrants. Fencer/fundraisers will receive a special commemorative wristband. After the competition, sponsors will receive an email with their pledge amount and a link for online donation.
There are wolf-themed prizes for medalists, and a prize in each age group for the fencer with the greatest number of sponsors.
Registration fee is $35 for preregistered fencers and $45 at the door. A portion of tournament fees will go directly to the Yellowstone Wolf Project.
Events Scheduled:
Y10 Mixed Epee
Y12 Mixed Epee
Y14 Mixed Epee
Because the events tend to overlap, entrants are limited to one event.
